The_Admiral Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 I've complained that the Nats go from too much red to too much blue between uniform sets. So let's take every red-or-blue uniform element and decide on one to be used on white and grey. The gold beveling will still be there, because it's kind of neat. Pick red or blue for each, except for a few special cases that red/blue doesn't apply to.Color of the capBill of the capWordmarkPlayer namePlayer numberPant stripesSocksNOT RED VS BLUE:Cap logo *Pretzel or DC*Front #s *Red, blue, or scrap them* ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProvidenceRI Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 I personally love the fact that both uniforms use a different base color. If they were both red, they would look like the Angels, or if they were all blue, theyd look like Brewers or Mariners.What I do not like is the Jersey and Numeral Font.It should be script, or perhaps a more traditional block font. With less colors. Right now, the fonts use 3 colors. It looks too busy. Should be cleaner and more traditional baseball style.They should also put vertical red piping on the blue away hat like they did in the 50s.

worst. jersey. ever. Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 the red home and blue away concept is nice, but they i totally agree with Providence, they gotta do something about the font. if they just got rid of the gold in there, it would look really good. especially on the gray jerseys, gray and gold look funny together. also, maybe they should have more references to the fact that they play in the nation's capital on their uniforms, like dotting the Is in Washington and Nationals with stars, red and white stripes as sleeve piping, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitaminD Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 ...like dotting the Is in Washington and Nationals with stars, red and white stripes as sleeve piping, etc. You mean the way their division rivals in Philadelphia have been doing for more than a decade? Washington isn't the only city than can lay claim to historical American themes.As for uniformity of color, I like the red for home and navy for road. And I like the number font. I wouldn't make any changes, although the wordmark script seems out of place as being a little too postmodern for this team, which I would think would have gone a little more traditional with the wordmark. "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted October 22, 2005 Author Share Posted October 22, 2005 The script matches everything just fine, it's the hat that's out of place.Also, I hate alternate road caps. Cardinals, Cubs, A's, Reds, so forth could all just cut it down to one cap. THey can still sell them, people will buy them. But there should be just one official cap. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommytimp Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 The font on the uniform front is just too big. I don't mind the bevel in gold or the disparate color schemes. I love the pretzel.

RickV Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Lets just rename them the Senators, then use the old Senators script logo. PRESTO! Senators now match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
